Dear US government,
Since you've just blocked Fable and Mythos on critical national security grounds, here are some other tools that pose a similar threat to the American people:
- Microsoft Teams
- SAP
- Salesforce
- Jira
- Outlook
Please do what you must to save America 🇺🇸
Americans are being offered massive amounts of money for their land from data centers
This man was offered $10 million
Data Centers are specifically looking for land with underground water, so they can buy it and secure the water rights before building begins
Of course when they start pumping massive amounts of water, everybody else in the nearby area typically starts having issues or their well runs dry

This clip of Charles Payne during Obama's second term is really incredible. Well done Charles.
In 2010 Obama put the federal government directly in charge of lending money to students. Eliminating private lending made the loans much easier to get, but they were not less expensive.
Before Obama took office, outstanding student debt was less than $100 billion. By 2015, outstanding student debt was approximately $800 billion and almost a third of the borrowers were in default. Of course the price of college continued to soar the entire time.
This is the best part. Payne predicted that someday the politicians would be promising to forgive student debt as a way to buy votes. He was spot on.
There are people like Ro Khanna on this site right now arguing that Elon Musk should be paying down the student debt when it's a problem that politicians created.
Nothing better than a summer Spielberg movie night in a packed theater with friends!

This broke TODAY — June 10, 2026. From News5Cleveland and the Ohio Capital Journal. Confirmed by the Ohio Farm Bureau. Backed by documents obtained directly from the Ohio Statehouse.
And what is being proposed in Columbus right now — quietly, while every eye in America was on Nashville’s 26-1 vote — is the most frightening piece of legislation that Ohio farmers have ever faced.
Because if this proposal becomes law — a data center company could take your farmland. Before a court decides what it is worth. Before you receive a single dollar. While construction begins on what used to be your family’s fields.
🌾 WHAT IS ACTUALLY BEING PROPOSED — IN PLAIN ENGLISH
The Ohio Business Roundtable — a powerful trade group that lobbies at the Statehouse — recommended in a document obtained by News5Cleveland that lawmakers change eminent domain law, and “should extend possession authority to energy infrastructure projects once public use and necessity have been established.” 
Eminent domain. That is the legal power that allows governments to take private property for public use. Roads. Schools. Hospitals. Public utilities. Things that serve the public.
Now — according to documents obtained directly from the Ohio Statehouse — the Ohio Business Roundtable is pushing to extend that power. To energy infrastructure projects. The same infrastructure that AI data centers need to operate.
“We are aware of efforts to further erode the limited protections that landowners have, allowing for quick take of property without first paying for the property and determining a landowner’s rights and compensation through a court of law,” the Ohio Farm Bureau’s Evan Callicoat said. 
Quick take. Without first paying for the property. Those four words should terrify every farmer, every landowner, and every property owner in Ohio — and every state watching what Ohio does next.
😤 “FARMERS COULD LOSE THEIR LAND — AND NOT GET PAID FOR MONTHS OR YEARS”
Data center companies do not hold the power of eminent domain, but Callicoat says that this version could eventually allow for it. “Many of the services and utilities that they require do hold that authority,” he said. He fears that with this proposed idea, it’s broad enough that farmers could lose their land to data centers, not getting paid for it for months or years. 
Months or years. Without payment. While construction begins on your land.
Let that sink in. A farmer who has worked the same fields for decades — whose children grew up on that land, whose family cemetery might sit at the edge of those fields — could be forced to watch a data center go up on his property while a court slowly determines what compensation he deserves.
Right now, eminent domain law allows for federal, state and local governments to take property for public use. If a court sides with the utility company, deeming it necessary to take, the appraised value of the land is given to a court account. However, the owner can appeal this decision to fight for more money. While this court battle is going on, construction is not allowed to begin. 
That last sentence is the critical protection that Ohio farmers currently have. While your court battle is going on — construction cannot begin. Your land cannot be touched until the legal process plays out.
The proposal being pushed by the Ohio Business Roundtable would eliminate that protection. Construction could begin while you are still fighting in court. While your family’s land is still legally in dispute. While the compensation for what was taken has not been determined.
🏛️ AND THE OHIO STATEHOUSE IS FIGHTING BACK — BUT THE OUTCOME IS NOT GUARANTEED
The Ohio Farm Bureau is not the only voice opposing this. Ohio lawmakers — responding to months of community pressure — are pushing their own legislation in the opposite direction.
The measure explicitly bars the use of eminent domain to acquire property for a data center project. “At this point,” Workman said, “we’re just making sure that we preserve farmland and individual property.” 
Preserve farmland. Preserve individual property. Those are the exact words of the Ohio lawmaker introducing the protective legislation. The direct opposite of what the Ohio Business Roundtable is pushing for.
Two bills. Moving simultaneously through the Ohio Statehouse. One that would protect Ohio farmers from losing their land to data centers. One that could — according to the Ohio Farm Bureau — eventually allow data center infrastructure to take property before compensation is determined.
The Ohio Farm Bureau’s 2026 Action Plan specifically calls for leading efforts for additional landowner protections, including eminent domain reform, streamlined judicial procedures, and agricultural easement program enforcement. The bureau also calls for engaging with the Ohio General Assembly on tax incentives that encourage the development of farmland such as data centers, warehouses, and business facilities. 
The Ohio Farm Bureau — the organization that represents hundreds of thousands of Ohio farm families — named data centers specifically in its 2026 action plan as a threat to farmland. Not as an abstract concern. As a documented, named, active threat that requires legislative action to address.
📜 AND THE SWEEPING NEW DATA CENTER LEGISLATION INTRODUCED TODAY ADDS ANOTHER LAYER
Ohio lawmakers introduced sweeping new data center legislation on June 10, 2026 — the same day that Ohio farmers expressed fears about the eminent domain proposal. 
Same day. Two simultaneous legislative battles. Ohio farmers waking up on June 10, 2026 — the same morning Nashville’s council voted 26-1 for a moratorium — to discover that their Statehouse is considering legislation that could give data center infrastructure companies the power to take their land before paying them.
This is not a coincidence. This is the pattern that communities from Ohio to Louisiana to Utah to Virginia have been documenting for two years. While communities fight visible battles — petitions, council votes, celebrity Instagram posts — the less visible battles happen inside Statehouse committee rooms. With trade group lobbyists. With documents obtained only because a journalist filed a public records request.
🌍 WHY OHIO IS THE MOST IMPORTANT BATTLEGROUND IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW
Ohio is not just any state. It is the state where two Ohio moms told the Washington Post that data centers will be the first thing on their minds when they vote in November. The state where Amazon Web Services broke ground on a campus stretching from a residential playground to a neighborhood elementary school. The state that has been called the Midwest’s fastest-growing data center market.
Data centers are Ohio’s newest land use controversy. With concerns ranging from water use to electricity prices to loss of farmland, the rapid onset of data center development has generated many questions and conflicts across the state. In response, members of the Ohio legislature have introduced several bills on data center development. 
Several bills. Moving through committee simultaneously. Some protecting farmers. Some potentially threatening them. And a powerful trade group lobby — the Ohio Business Roundtable — pushing for changes that the Ohio Farm Bureau says could amount to allowing quick take of property without first paying the owner.
Data center opponents gave Ohio lawmakers an earful at the Statehouse on June 3, 2026. And on June 10 — the same day Nashville voted 26-1 — Ohio farmers found out about the eminent domain proposal. Their reaction was immediate. 
🗣️ “THE FARM BUREAU ISN’T OPPOSED TO DATA CENTERS — BUT THEY ARE OPPOSED TO A VIOLATION OF PROPERTY RIGHTS”
This is the most important nuance in the entire Ohio story. And it is the nuance that makes it reach across every political divide.
The Farm Bureau isn’t opposed to data centers, but they are opposed to a violation of property rights, Callicoat said. 
This is not an anti-technology fight. This is not a fight against economic development or job creation or the AI industry.
This is a fight about one of the most fundamental rights in American law. The right to own property. The right to not have that property taken before you are paid for it. The right that the Founders wrote into the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution — “nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation” — specifically to protect ordinary Americans from exactly this kind of power being exercised against them.
Ohio farmers are not fighting data centers. They are fighting the idea that a company — backed by a powerful trade group lobby — can use the legal infrastructure of the state to take their land without compensation while construction begins.
That fight — the fight for property rights against corporate power — is not a left fight or a right fight. It is an American fight.
Here is what every Ohio landowner, every Ohio farmer, every Ohio property owner needs to understand right now:
The Ohio Business Roundtable has filed a document with Ohio Statehouse recommending changes to eminent domain law that — according to the Ohio Farm Bureau — are broad enough that farmers could lose their land to data center infrastructure before being paid for it.
That proposal is being considered in Columbus today. While the entire country is watching Nashville. While Erin Brockovich is mapping data center reports from 49 states. While 360,000 people are celebrating a 26-1 council vote in Tennessee.
The battle for Ohio farmland is happening right now. In a committee room. With lobbyists. With documents that had to be obtained through public records requests.
And the only thing standing between Ohio’s farm families and this proposal becoming law is the Ohio Farm Bureau, a handful of protective bills, and the attention of Ohio voters who are paying attention to what their Statehouse is doing in their name.
Are you paying attention?
Are you an Ohio farmer or landowner? Did you know this proposal existed before reading this post? Tell us your county. Tell us your reaction. The Ohio Farm Bureau needs to know how many people are watching this fight.
The Fifth Amendment was written for exactly this moment.
SHARE THIS with every Ohio farmer, every rural landowner, every property rights advocate, every Republican and Democrat who believes that what a man owns cannot be taken from him without fair and immediate compensation. This fight is happening TODAY in Columbus. They need to know.
we are covering the Ohio Statehouse data center fight in real time, alongside Nashville, New York, Utah, and every other community and state where the fight for America’s land, water, and property rights is happening simultaneously. Do not let this one get buried while everyone watches Nashville.
